The sketch for Freshly Made Sketches drew me in this week. The sketch is by Jen Timko
I did not stray from the sketch as the idea of a button drew me to the sketch in the first place. I purchased several of the border stamp sets from the annual catalog and thought they might be fun to use with this sketch.
The base of the card is Daffodil Delight. The stamp set is Bordering Blooms and I used a deeper yellow and deeper orange ink with each panel. The first combination is Daffodil Delight and Calypso Coral, followed by Crushed Curry and Tangerine Tango, and finally Hello Honey and Tangelo Twist. Bordering Blooms is a Photopolymer Stamp Set making lining up the stamps Easy Peasy.
The button is from the Brights Collection. And the Gold Baker's Twine adds a little dazzle. Clean and simple.
I hope you are enjoying your weekend. We are deep into our dog days of summer in Florida. August and September are the toughest with the humidity. Yet I love the fact that the sun is shinning everyday. As they say, Life doesn't need to be Perfect to be Wonderful.
Thanks again for stopping by!
